Driving down the interstate doing 70-80mph and the car starts dinging-stabilitrack, traction control, and reduced power all come on and the car loses power without any warning and couldn't drive faster than 5 mph and had to get to the shoulder of the road without getting hit by other vehicles doing the same speed. This vehicle with this issue that came out of nowhere should not be driven on the road. I have had several issues with this vehicle and cel lights on but nothing that almost completely stops vehicle without warning and almost kills everyone in the car! I get they are trying to save the engine or whatever from further damage but I am pretty sure that I would like to live and not kill anyone else in the process of this so called safety precaution the vehicle takes on.

I was driving and the reduced engine power, service stabili track, check engine warnings came on. My car would only accelerate to 5mph. Luckily I wasn't on the freeway, was only going 20 mph and almost home. Very dangerous. I put an end code reader on it and it's a p2135 code, throttle positioning sensor. I have been reading chevy Cruze forums as well as in chevy forums in the past week, a minimum of 1000 people that I can see have had this issue. Many have been in accidents because of this. Its occured in mainly chevy Cruze but also impalas, GMC vehicles. I took it to the dealer and I need a new throttle body, there is no special coverage although its occured in thousands of vehicles if not 10s of thousands! it's dangerous! there is a special coverage for pedal accelerator fracture but they say mine is fine and not related to throttle body. This needs to be addressed with chevy and it should be recalled or have special coverage. Here is a readout from the mechanic.

I was driving in subdivision at 20mph and vehicle went into limp mode. It had a message saying engine power reduced, service stability track and check engine light was on. It would not accelerate more than 5mph. This is very dangerous! luckily I was not going 70 on the freeway. I've been reading on chevy forums and gm forums of this happening to thousands of people. Many got in accidents because of reduced acceleration to 3 or 5 mph. I took it to the dealer it has a p2135 code and is die to a bad throttle body and throttle positioning sensor. The chevy manufacturer is not willing to do anything about it although it's a known issue to chevy and GMC cars from many years of vehicles, from what I've read 2009 to current year. Mine is a 2012 chevy Cruze lt. There is a special coverage of pedal accelerator fracture but the dealer said it's not related to my issue, I have a hard time believing this. Here is a note of what the dealer looked at and diagnosed.

Vehicle was in motion going approx 35 mph uphill on residential road when it started vibrating and "service stabilitrak" light came on. Pulled over into gas station and shut car off. Sat for 2 minutes before turning back on. Service stabilitrak light remained on with some vibration. Merged onto highway and attempted to reach the speed limit of 65 mph. Cruze would not allow me to accelerate above 60 mph. Service breaks light came on and then got an alert stating that power steering had failed. Car basically shut itself down and I had trouble getting it to fully turn off. Steam/smoke then began coming out from under the hood and liquid from the car was all over the road. Towed to chevy dealer where they discovered a hole in the engine block, otherwise known as a catastrophic failure. Car had 27k miles on it at the time. It was an extremely scary and dangerous ordeal.

On multiple occasions while car is driving, check engine light turned on and car was unable to accelerate. (also happened once after car had been parked) it only lasts about an hour before car can accelerate again and then check engine light will eventually turn off. Also, car feels rough shifting between gears and has trouble accelerating often.

Driving to work car overheated all antifreeze was gone. Got a new hose put on still smelling antifreeze then pcv went out why haven't they did a recall on this dangerous car. Trraveling nover bridge car started slowing down wouldn't pick up speed. Each time stop it didn't want to go sputterin found out pcv is bad went to look up everyone is having the same problem and theres no recall why.

No warning turbo failure that cases vehicle to lose power suddenly I was on freeway when engine light came on and a engine power reduced warning came on went to auto zone and they said it was a p0299 have seen a lot of info on the internet net saying that the turbo has gone out this is bad when your at freeway speeds.

The oils is leaking is this vehicle . . And how it was explained is that the oil is also leaking into the turbo . . Which is causing oil to basically be pushed out instead of air being brought in for the car to go the correct speed and the car is undriveable.

The last few days I have been getting messages on my dash with errors such as �service traction control/service stabilitrak�. Took my car to the dealership for a diagnosis check and was told nothing showed up. However, this morning while on my commute to work, I was driving on the highway when all of a sudden my car decelerated and I got the message �engine power has been reduced/service traction control/service stabilitrak� and my check engine light came on. Because of this, I was forced to pull onto the shoulder of the road while almost being hit by other vehicles. This was extremely dangerous and scary for me because I have no idea what happened and it could have cost me my life, as well as others.

Acceleration notably sluggish, taken to dealership for concern 3 years ago with complaints and was told there were no issues. Took car back to dealership this year due to check engine code. Turbo engine defective, going to cost $2200 to repair. Under $60,000 mile power train but just hit the 5 year warranty 2 days prior to calling dealership and gm. Dealership unwilling to offer financial assistance due to missing problem during original complaints 3 years ago. Took car to another dealership, which found additional $2000 in repairs that would need to take place in order for turbo repair to be effective. Car is not safe to drive, with likelihood it would break down in 10 min to multiple leaks and broken parts original dealership missed and failed to discuss. Car now costs $3400 to repair , gm only willing to help with $600. Car too expensive to repair and too dangerous to drive.

Tl the contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Cruze. While driving up a hill at 45 mph, the contact released the accelerator pedal and the vehicle began to accelerate on its own without warning. The contact depressed the brake pedal to stop the vehicle. Once he stopped the vehicle, the vehicle resumed normal driving function. The dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and stated that the vehicle was out of warranty; therefore, the contact would be responsible for the repair costs. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was 80,000.

Cruze control fails to remain set and turns off on it's own resulting in reduction of speed when traveling. Rear seat belt buckles become non-functional and won't fasten, posing a safety hazard and making the rear seats unusable for passengers.

Driving home at 9pm on a high speed/traffic highway, we had all electricity/steering suddenly go out, then when it came back on popped up with a "service stabilitrak " message. Luckily, it came back on before a wreck but scared all of us to pieces. The car was being driven at the posted 70mph speed limit, but started to decelerate when power was lost. This happened on 07/08/19. Today, 07/11/19 we had to jump the car and the turn signals no longer do the little "click" noise, and the dash screen/backup camera won't come on, although the radio still somehow works. Also on lunch break today, car was dead, key wouldn't come out of the ignition till the car was jump started. As this seems to be a major issue with the car, why hasn't it been recalled?.

Tl the contact owns a 2011 Chevrolet Cruze. While driving 30 mph, when the contact released the accelerator pedal, the vehicle stopped abruptly. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, but the failure could not be duplicated.

My brakes keep going "hard" and not functioning properly. About a year ago I had my master cylander, brake booster, microswitch in the brake vacuum line, maf sensor and air intake hose replaced because the mechanic said those were the issues, I went 2 weeks without my vehicle, including breaking down for multiple days out of state. Now here I am with the same issues. Before I had them replaced I was told that the microswitch in the brake system was already recalled and replaced. But since then it has failed again. I was told by chevy that they only do the recall once, but if they are replacing it with a faulty part shouldn't that be recalled again? I have two toddlers in my vehicle regularly and losing the power brakes could end very bad. The power brakes fail almost every day, usually the first time I hit the brakes after starting to vehicle. Witch make me think that its going to completely fail again soon.

While driving the car on an off ramp the display panel showed 3 warning light, abs, traction control, and brake. The communication panel, where the speed and all communications about the car are given, then said reduced engine power and my car slowed down and my power steering stopped working. The panel then also said service stabilitrak and service traction control. It has happened more than once since I bought the vehicle and the dealer replaced the the ecm a few years ago and it hasn't fixed the issue as it still occurs. The most recent event happened last week.

Automatic transmission failure can result in vehicle rolling backwards for 3-5 seconds in duration after releasing brake while. While on flat ground - this causes danger to other driver as the expect other vehicles to be moving after a traffic light turns green. While on an incline - this condition may pose a danger to pedestrians and other motorists as the automatic transmission will allow the vehicle to roll backwards a great distance. The distance and speed of travel backwards will vary based on angle of incline of street or road. When this condition occurs - the driver is completely unaware and may not be able to apply the brake in enough time to prevent collision with other vehicles or pedestrians. This condition happens when: 1 - transmission is hot (about 40 min drive time) 2 - brake is depressed for longer than 3 seconds while sitting at light. 3 - releasing brake may or may not result in this condition happening. Service 1 - the vehicle shows no codes for transmission failure. 2 - multiple gm dealers have confirmed software of vehicle is up to date. 3 - multiple dealers have mixed statements if they can duplicate the issue or not. Dealer 1 says - "it's your driving habits. We reset the computer and it will re-learn how you drive. " dealer 2 says - "we were able to duplicate your issue and are awaiting a response from gm" - when speaking to gm they indicated they never received an email form the dealer. Condition was first seen at approximately 68k miles and has continued on/off until current mileage of 98k. Dealer and gm corporate have had vehicle for greater than 30 days and are unable to provide resolution. As a firefighter - it is my professional opinion that this condition may present a risk to public welfare.

On October 19,2018 my in laws were traveling north on route 61 in pennsylvania. They can to a red light and ran into the back of a minivan and the airbags deployed. Then we dont know what happened, but the car accelerated and went the length of a football field and they hit a pole and my mother in law died instantly and my father in law died at 5:10 am. My concern is why isn't it an industry standard that once the airbags are deployed the throttle doesn't shut down. If the throttle would have not worked they way still be alive. If you cant help me could you send me in the right direction.

Turned onto a major highway and a code came on and then it wouldn't accelerate, made some weird clanking noise, the noise comes and goes but is loud, rpms were high. Car has been well maintained oil changes every 3000 miles. Took to independent mechanic and problem was unidentified. Calling dealership in the morning.

Car will turn off while driving. Ive owned this car for a little over a year and just started doing this 5 times in the last 2 weeks. This has happened while on highway in traffic, twice in town in traffic. The car is in motion on the higway when this happened, it also has happened turning onto higway with other cars behind me I almost got rear ended by a car behind me cause the car lost power! it has also turn itself off and on in park. This needs to be fixed before there is a major accident that causes bodly harm!!! this is a safety hazarrd!!! I bought extended warranty on this car. I have an appointment with the dealership July 31st to find the issue. I also have contacted gm. I know that there was a recall for ignition problems concerning this vehilce in 2014, when you pull up my VIN there has been no recall. I am very concerned for my safty in this car. I have had a friend that has a code reader look and it said there is an engine issue???? I do not want to have to get an attorney involved but I will if this becomes an issue. This is very scary!!!!.

While driving a few times car has stopped on me and coukd have caused an accident while I was in motion car just ceased.

The chevy eco Cruze has been giving me problems from the start. I was driving with the ac on and came to a signal light when the ac shuts of & comes back on. Also at the signal light I thaught I had gotten a tap from the back from another vehicle because the car jerked. Turned out no car behind me but car still jerks forward with foot all the way down on brake pedal. Next if I'm driving and slow down to make, let's say a left hand turn once I make the turn the car is sluggish as if it has trouble picking up speed. Happens all the time from a stopped position or if I slow down it takes for ever to pick up momentum. Making it scarey to merge or just be on the road. Also if I turn the radio up the lights will die or fade so I've replaced the alternator but it still does it. Ive checked connections wires you name it.

Code u0164 :data communication with the climate control system has been lost or interrupted. Code u0155 : data communication with the instrument panel system has been lost or interrupted. Received these codes from on stsr took my vehicle to dealership next day they said they found no errors. But, I don't know how now when ever I use xm sirius radio it always says lost connection/signal. Also, vehicle is always hot like the heater is on when it's not on. Has lost in acceleration while driving highway and city streets been doing that for the last month or 2. Also the dashboard seems to not be working no lights come on when fluids are needed.

Vehicle has a very rough idle while stopped and while driving. When driving the vehicle will change roughly idle and speed up the vehicle. While in a stopping position the vehicle will roughly idle and the rpm indicator will bounce up and down. The engine light is on and the traction control warning and service esp warnings come on intermittently while in stopped position and then the vehicle will not accelerate properly. The most recent one revved and accelerated on its own, almost hitting the car at the stoplight in front of me.

Ok so I needed a new car and went and ended up at a nice looking used car lot and financed a 2013 chevy Cruze lt. Since purchasing the car. (at this moment I've only had the car for 23 days) I had the car looked over by my mechanic and everything looked good and fine. And since day 1 these are the recalls that have been made on this vehicle but not for my VIN but is happening with the car in order from when first noticed. First I was stopped at a red light and the car jerked forward and honestly scared me as it felt like I had just been hit by the car behind me. ( which wasnt the case as I got out to check). Well then after a few days im on the interstata and decided to use the speed control, at first it was just like you would expect it to be but after not even 5 minutes the car starts acting like in tapping and releasing the gas and will not stop unless speed control is turned off or stopped. So then I run over a nail and go to replace the tire and the mechanic looks over the car again and bring an oil leak to my atttention from the oil pan and shown visible oil on the gasket. (already under my limited dealer warranty). So since then I have checked the oil every day just to be sure im not running low and it wasnt low. Well like a week later I make a drive I have actually made in this car about 6 times already to have lunch with a friend and when I get there turn the car off and then the friend is 10 min away so I restart the car for the ac. Didnt have the car back on for 2 min and the car started beeping with engine overheat warning. Turned the car off and popped hood to check and from the overheating I guess there was pressure on the hose it just popped the hose from the clamp and coolant went every where. Had been away from the car and car was cooled and added more coolant to it. And everything is fine. Well then the next night out of no where the head gasket blew.

Tl-the contact owns a 2012 chevy Cruze. While driving at 4 mph the Cruze control seized and the vehicle continued to accel. While in reverse the vehicle will do the same thing. The contact stated that in order to stop the vehicle the brakes had be jammed down hard. The part was fixed in 2014. However, the brakes still failed and the vehicle will not stop while in reverse. The dealer informed them that this is due to the brake micro vacum switch failing. The vehicle was taken to riley cheverolet Buick GMC 2033 christy dr, jefferson city, mo 65101 where they informed her of the problem. The manufacturer was informed and they told her that the parts are not covered under the recall. The failure milage was 34,000. Jw.

Car does not run right. When accelerating the car does not budge and stalls out. Found out if the ac is off it is less likely to stall out after stopping. Was told it is a possible clogged catalytic converter. The stabilitrak and traction control wanings pop up. Took it to auto zone and they told me it was bad gas. Something is off and it's not a easy diagnosis.
